If you are looking for an air conditioned oceanfront villa with a secluded pristine beach, you have found it. All the privacy and solitude of a villa property with the luxury of a nearby resort with one of the top ten beaches in the world. Beach below villa is great for sunning, exercise flying kites, picnics, cocktails and meditation. Recommended advance swimmers only. General swimming beach 300 yards past villa. Crane Resort 3 minutes drive restaurants shops and world class beach. 3 bedroom The space Best vacation rental ever 5 out of 5 We travel extensively around the world - all parts of Canada, countries in Europe, all over South America, Hawaii, etc. - and this is by far the best vacation rental we have ever had. We have stayed here twice, once with our 3 children in 2008 (ages 8, 10 and 16) and then again by ourselves in 2013. The owner is fantastic, and takes impeccable care of her property. The location is sublime, and it is exceptionally well furnished. There is a balcony off 2 of the 3 bedrooms and the water welcomes you in the morning and lulls you to sleep at night. Highlights: Well-stocked kitchen, a living and dining room that feels like home, views of the water, serenity of the environment, fresh fruit and vegetable stands down the road, satellite TV, spacious and well appointed bathrooms, OUTSTANDING linens -- plush towels and high quality bedding, including the mattress. There's air conditioning if you want it, but we found that with the breeze from the water, we didn't need it. The owner has truly thought of everything. You will want for nothing while here. The grocery store is a short drive, and the Crane's beach provides for swimming at a small cost. That we have visited so many places and yet have returned here twice says a lot because we typically like to see the world. When we want to connect with each other as a family or as spouses and want to do so away from home, we will surely reach out to the owner. It has become our go to spot for recharging. Book now; you will not be disappointed. Review Submitted: 09-Apr-2014 Date of Stay: Jul 2013 john t. Great Vacation in Paradise 5 out of 5 Great Deal. Safe. Spotless. Comfortable. Oceanfront. Awesome views. Wireless Internet. Everything we were looking for. We went on vacation with another couple and stayed at this property and really enjoyed ourselves. Both of our bedrooms exited out to a balcony overlooking the ocean that was furnished with cushioned lounges and small breakfast tables and chairs. Right on the ocean. Spent most days going different places on island, shopping, tourist sites. Great home to return to each day. Enjoyed our own little "happy hour" at the beach below the villa watching the sunset. Just had a great time. We also spent time at the Crane Resort which is nearby and loved their beach and had lunch there a couple of times. We can tell you we are thrilled we found this property to rent and enjoyed our stay. Our thanks to the owner. She was most helpful and informative throughout the process of booking and her referrals and recommendations were appreciated; from the car rental, to restaurants to just some great tips on visiting Barbados. We look forward to our return.

So many properties to choose from and we found and chose this one. Villa was spotless, nice open layout and comfortable with such spectacular views. Must comment on the good mattresses and nice linens. Appreciated. We have traveled the Carib enough to know the difference. Great beaches, spectacular ocean views, sunrises, sunsets, night sky filled with a thousand stars. The stars were so close to us as we lounged evenings on the upper deck. It felt like you could reach out and touch them. We loved the oceanfront upper deck off the bedrooms. We enjoyed our privacy on both of the beaches within steps of villa. We also spent late afternoons enjoying the covered oceanfront verandah, relaxing, reading our books, yes working on our I pads and enjoying a few "Happy Hour" cocktails. This beautiful tropical breeze we found so soothing. When we were choosing properties we didn't even factor in an upper deck and verandah and both were such a bonus. The villa sits right on the edge of the ocean. Such great value for the reasonable rate we paid. Perfect location. We rented a car upon the owners recommendation and glad we did. We went to grocery store, fish market, visited some duty free shops and explored the island. The natives were very nice and always helpful. Catamaran and snorkle trip was a fun day. Crane Resort was very close and we ran over there several times to dine at their restaurants and also enjoyed their beach one day. We loved the privacy of this villa. It was cozy and comfortable. It was very romantic and really afforded us the chance to connect again from our busy lives we lead. The sounds of silence. Rejuvenating. Several days we had plans to do tourist things and just found we were so enjoying the villa we changed our plans and spent the days at the villa. That's a good thing on a vacation when you are so relaxed and comfortable and don't feel like you have to go running around. We had the beach steps below the villa surrounded by the cliffs where you will find true solitude. Awesome. We had a great trip and really enjoyed our stay at this property and am wishing right now we were still there. Review Submitted: 18-Apr-2011 Date of Stay: Apr 2011 Recommended for: Age 55+, Adventure Seekers, Girls Getaway, Sightseeing, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children, Romantic Getaway "Lovebirds" Maryland, USA Our Stay at Paradise Found 5 out of 5 We enjoyed our vacation at this ocean front villa and so pleased with our choice. It was clean, comfortable, safe and well maintained. The beds and linens were so comfortable, which is a real treat in the Caribbean. We have been to many of the islands in the Caribbean and always rent a private home. This was definitely one of our favorite homes we have rented and Barbados is one of our favorite islands. The villa and location were just perfect. We were close enough to the grocery stores, shops, restaurants and action if we wanted to go out but far away enough that it didn't interfere with our peaceful and quiet stay. I booked the villa on the "Lovebirds Special" that the owner was offering. What a great deal! Such value for our dollars spent. We would have been hard pressed to find an ocean front hotel room for the price we paid for an entire ocean front villa. Plenty of room. We had our choice of gorgeous beaches to choose from. We sunned at the beach below the villa. We swam at the beach at the end of the cliff, Both of these beaches we enjoyed to ourselves the days we were there. We also spent a nice day at the Crane Resort beach and had lunch and cocktails. All the beaches special and memorable in their own way. We had to keep in touch due to our work and loved working on our computer from the dining area looking out to the sea and sky. It brought a new pleasure to work. The ocean and sky surround you. You definitely feel at one with mother nature. I especially enjoyed the morning sun and my coffee on the upper deck right off the bedrooms. To stand on that balcony and look at the endless sky and sea and cliffs. Words can't express. Such a great way to start the day. And that would be how many of our evenings were spent just enjoying the tropical breezes and the sound of the waves and lounging under the stars with a good glass of wine before calling it a day. So relaxing. Slept great. Came home feeling rested not worn out. The owner was so helpful and informative from the time we inquired about booking the villa. She always responded promptly to our emails and answered our questions thoroughly. Such a pleasure to deal with and had good advice even for seasoned travelers. We really enoyed our stay. It all just went too fast. We are already talking about returning next year. Review Submitted: 13-Apr-2011 Date of Stay: Feb 2011 Recommended for: Age 55+, Adventure Seekers, Girls Getaway, Sightseeing, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children, Romantic Getaway Dick and Sue Okemos Michigan USA Outstanding Secluded Oceanfront Villa 5 out of 5 This is a fantastic rental – the perfect place to just kick back and enjoy paradise! The Villa sits right on the ocean, with the surf crashing a few steps below your porch and a deserted sand beach nestled between the cliffs at the edge of the property. The ocean is a constant presence in the Villa, and it creates a totally relaxing experience. There are a few friendly locals who come by to fish off the cliff, but essentially you have the beach and the ocean to yourself. The ground floor porch in the Villa is covered and shady, while the upper balcony is open for tanning, star gazing, and wonderful alfresco dining to the delightful sounds of the sea! The Villa is well furnished and spacious enough that you don’t feel crowded, and the TV and Internet connections allow you to enjoy the comforts of home away from home. There is no air conditioning, but amazingly enough it just isn’t needed! The trade breezes and ceiling fans kept the house cool in 85° heat, and there were no bugs either. A rental car is needed if you venture out and tour the island, but we stayed home many days and just soaked up life at the Villa. Upscale dining is available a few blocks away at the famous Crane resort, and there is a nice deli (Cutter’s) close by with great take out (be sure to try their special sauce). The grocery store is about 5 minutes away, and we ate in the Villa most nights – the ambiance from our balcony surpassed that of the fancy restaurants who boasted about their “fabulous seaside dining” experience! The owner attended to our every need and referred us to a rental car company with the most courteous and helpful staff. The on-site caretaker and the maid were wonderful and inconspicuous, while still making sure the place was clean and that we were enjoying our vacation. The only “drawback” to this place is that it is situated away from the hustle and bustle of night life and tourist attractions that are located on the south and west side of Barbados. But that also means that you have undisturbed tranquility and peace from an absolutely idyllic setting. We have vacationed in Hawaii for many years, and did not really expect this to be as nice as the Kauai beach house we usually rented. But it more than exceeded our expectations and we are already planning our return next year.

There is something very magical about this property. Just a wonderful holiday. Mike F. Romantic Paradise. 5 of 5 My wife and I spent a week at this wonderful ocean front villa. The wind off the ocean provide a cool breeze day and night. The sound of the surf lulling you to sleep every night. The pictures I brought home will be looked at with fondness for many years to come. The villa was clean, comfortable and exactly like the pictures on the website. Every night we'd lookout of the bedroom balcony at the stars and watch the foamy surf roll in.In the distance the lights of a ship would light up the otherwise pitch black horizon. The staff at the villa was awesome and responded to our every need. We found the Island beautiful from it's crowded tourist filled downtown Bridgetown to the beautiful rolling country side on the way to Harrison's Cave. While the roads were not always marked very well, if at all, the people were quick to point out the right directions. You have to attend the Fish Fry on Friday night at Oistins but get there early as it gets very crowed quickly. A little cafe called Marco Polo on the way from the airport provided a great fish and chips and tender roast chicken. Shopping at Warrens was like shopping in the US. They had the best fresh baked bread. The East coast was rugged cliffs with a pounding surf, the small village of Bathsheba was a little spot of paradise tucked into an out of the way, hard to find place. It was filled with mostly older tourist and the west coast/Caribbean side was much like Beaches on the Gulf of Mexico in the US. Cane fields blew in the breeze much as they did 200 years ago and monkeys darted across the road in front of you or sit in trees along the road, An enchanting Island full of friendly people, a romantic Villa that offered the comforts of home, what more can one say. It's a trip I'd make again. You must rent a car to fully appreciate this beautiful island.

Clean, safe, well maintained oceanfront villa with air conditioning and might I add nice breezes coming off the ocean. We loved it. Great value. Communication excellent with owner throughout booking of property. Would highly recommend and would love to return again. We enjoyed the privacy at the villa yet we had the activity of the Crane Resort nearby when we wanted to eat or shop or use their beach. Also enjoyed the solitude of the two beaches surrounding the villa. Nice variety. Really enjoyed upper deck off of bedrooms for morning sunning and nightly star gazing. Spent a few days on verandah reading and relaxing and letting the sky, sea and cliffs just engulf my senses. Wonderful. Very relaxing. Home now, back to grind with great memories. Our thanks.

The view is spectacular, the sound of the surf crashing on the shore mesmerizing. The house was perfect for our group of five and we enjoyed returning their every night after fun touring the island. Karen's pre-trip instructions were thorough and accurate and really enhanced our visit to Barbados. Even her connections with the car rental folks made that a breeze. I can't wait to go back!

Happy to have found this property. The owner was most informative and helpful and promptly addressed our inquiries throughout the booking process. The location was great. The price was great. There were a variety of beaches to choose from. We flew kites, played frisbee and football, read, swam and got beautiful color. Made many happy memories. Just fun days exploring the beaches and island and then happy each day to return to a safe, clean and comfortable home. We rented a car from the rental agency the owner recommended and were very pleased with their service. The villa has beautiful decks off both levels. We so enjoyed our morning juice and coffee on the upper deck right off of our bedroom. Loved star gazing at night. The sky clear and filled with stars. The verandah had nice dining tables and chairs where we enjoyed several meals. There was a comfortable loungers on the verandah and upper deck where I would begin to read and soon my eyes would close, more than once. Beautiful sea breeze, very soothing. This truly is an oceanfront property and the views are to behold. Can't get any closer unless you were on a boat. Just beautiful. The beds were comfortable which is a treat in the islands. It was such a nice way to fall asleep at night listening to the waves hit the cliffs and beach. There were a variety of beaches to choose from near the villa. It was a great holiday for our family. It really felt like our home away from home. You can't ask for more than that. We look forward to our return. Submitted: Jun 19, 2010 Stayed: December 2009 Source: Vacation Rentals, from HomeAway Pauline1508 Raleigh, NC, USA Great Value for the Price 5 of 5 The view is breathtaking and the villa is well-maintained. It is located between Sam Lord's Castle and Crane Beach. You will be privy to awesome sunrises, spectacular views of the stars and wonderful sea breezes. The villa is equipped with all of the creature comforts you will need including an unobstructed view of the most beautiful view of the Caribbean water that I have seen in all of my travels. Every morning, we took walks around the area and discovered many beach alcoves where we could take a dip in the water or sit and just watch the water hit the cliffs. When we didn't feel like cooking, we walked to the Crane Hotel for breakfast. A few times, we even sunned on Crane beach (touted by Robin Leach as one of the ten most beautiful beaches in the world) just so we could say we had been there. However, the nearly-deserted beach just below the villa is just as beautiful and great for sunbathing. This is an unbelievable property for the price. It’s spacious enough for 6-7 people. This made our stay even more enjoyable than we had planned. We were extremely comfortable and highly recommend it for anyone planning a trip to Barbados.

Tolles Haus in super Lage 5 of 5 Wir haben das Haus sehr genossen, es ist durch die unmittelbare Nähe zum Meer etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Aber schöne Zimmer, liebevoll mit vielen verspielten Dekoelementen. Wir fanden die direkte Lage am Meer traumhaft, die Wellen sind laut und tösend. Vor dem Haus liegt direkt ein Strandabschnitt, in dem wir nicht baden waren, da die Wellen zu hoch waren. Super fanden wir die Betreuerin das Hauses Karen, sie kümmerte sich im Vorfeld umfangreich und gewissenhaft. Mehr ging nicht! Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit und werden sicher wiederkommen!!
